I'm not all that clued up on LED screen technology

But this tweet shows the exposed window of the Midlands Today studio from the newsroom, since 2012 this has been covered with a curtain - my question is what are those things behind the window?

That does look suspiciously like the back of an LED videowall, which hopefully confirms that all regions are going to get the full mini-nationals set-up. If this is the case, I expect many will be surprised by the size of some of the regional studios once the rear projection screens are removed - as the picture shows, the LEDs can go very close to the wall.

A bit of a shame though that Birmingham are still insisting on covering up their newsroom window. An actual backdrop adds so much depth to any studio, but particularly one as tiny as Birmingham's. To my knowledge, three regions have actual newsroom windows, all currently blocked off - such a waste.

One odd thing that I do particularly hope for the English regions sets is that they are going to have soft sets as standard. Everytime that they try and impose desks on the regions, it is only a matter of time before they try and replace the desk with a soft set - often of inferior quality. Just give a sofa and coffee table to start!
